Jan Ladislav Dussek - Sonatina Op. 20, No. 1, 2nd Movement

The starting really makes me laugh when I listen.. (Self-entertainment at its max.) Lol... It's just excessively cute.

Anyway, this song always reminds me of a little girl who went to a funfair with her mum. The starting was when she first step into the fair and was bewildered by what she saw. (00:14) Then she got excited and dragged her mum in further.

(00:26) At a game station, she saw a brown bear that she wanted! (00:56) And she kept bugging her mum to get it for her... Her mum scolded her and she kept whining... And whining... (1:46) Until her mum finally gave in, shook her head and bought it for her.

She was so happy.

- The End -

When you tried your best but you don't succeed.

When you let down the people who believed in you...

When you feel like giving up time and again...

When the road ahead is long and winding...

When certainty has disappeared...

 

"Be still (Aileen), and know that I am God."
Psalm 46:10

 

It takes confidence to say that.

And with a quiet trust, I smile.

I don't know why am I blogging so much today!!! I went to watch a movie alone just now HAHA... Well, it's just across the street and I felt like watching. So I went. So me...? Haha...

The guy at the counter went (0.0) when I told him I wanna get ONE ticket. Seriously, what's wrong?

. .. ... .... .....

And now a thought crosses my mind...

When I go up to heaven next time, I wanna play heavenly music!!!

I hope that my skills and techniques will all be perfect in heaven! And then I'll play with all my heart for dear God! I'll still choose piano and cello. They are the 2 most beautiful instruments Man ever created.

But in the meantime, while on planet Earth, I wish I can do that too... Hmmm... Somehow it seems far-fetched. But I'm gonna do my best.

I guess there's no need for nurses in heaven? Hehe. So I'll be glad to be a FULL-TIME musician for eternity!!!!!!!!!!!! :)

Wow. I am gonna play music forever.

Dad picked me up from school earlier then we went to

1. Collect passport
2. Newton Circles to eat my MeePok
3. Botanical Garden

Nice date.

HAHA, hope that my future bf (since the topic is so hot now) is spontaneous and DRIVES! So we can go many places together hehehe...

Managed to take some shots while my camera was still alive...

The Swan Lake

 

With a REAL swan! HAHA...

An attempt.

I like this shot!!! 

Nice? :)

..... .... ... .. .

Talking about passport...

I might be going to Serdang, Medan this July for 2 weeks with NUS Nursing. It's a rural village where the people can have up to 5 meals a day but their diet only consists of rice and chilli. So we'll be going over to do a survey/research and educate them about proper balanced diet.

Or something like that.

So me right? HAHAHA.

For those who don't know, I take fast-food less than 5 times a year.

It's empty calories. (Meaning high calories but no/low nutritional value.) Plus all the horror stories you hear about fast-food.

I don't see why people still have the appetite for it. Haha. Ok la it's tasty (due to whatever chemicals they put in) but I don't like the after-effect of eating...

. .. ... .... .....

My head is throbbing now and I'm in a mood to watch a movie!

Off!

Oh oh I'm happy!

I just called a piano technician and arranged a date with him. So he's coming to my house tmr! Sounds wrong? Lol...

By RIGHT a piano should be tuned every 0.5 year... However the last time he came was 1.5 years ago?! And he tuned it for 1.5 hours... That was terrible cos I didn't tune it for a few years as I had stopped learning then.

The tuning process is kinda noisy whereby he'd repeatedly hit on the key very loudly to tune... But I'm always very intrigue and would watch him in action as he takes out his tools and opens up my piano!

And I'd MARVEL................. (0.0)

The piano is such a brilliant invention.

..... .... ... .. .

iWant!!!!!!!!!!

If I can see it, I can have it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

(Hung stop scolding me.... :( )

. .. ... .... .....

HAHA... K... I'm going to school now. For only 1 hour.......

Chinese New Year

As for every Chinese New Year, my relatives always said and asked the same things.

1) You have slimmed down. (I'm beginning to think it's a formality to say that Lol. Thou shall not be deceived.)

2) You have grown prettier. (Open for refutation. Haha.)

Of which they would inspect and touch me all over... Like my hair... Body... *shrug* ...

3) Do you have a boyfriend?

This is a hot all-time favourite question. HAHA. I supposed everyone has been asked that at least once? Unless he/she is present or something like that. So my aunt actually asked me to get a DOCTOR since I'll be a nurse in future.

-_-

NOOOOO way....

Cousin: Why not?? He'd be rich...
Me: Eee NO...

Just low affinity towards them. Ha...

..... .... ... .. .

It was a heart-warming feeling to be around family members, people who watched me grew up and who grew up with me. Cousins who used to pull my hair and create havoc together in the house.

I love my childhood!

We played a lot together... And were actually racists who would fight with the Malay kids HAHAHA. It was so fun!!! Cousins unite!!!

(Note that the above is in PAST tense.)

Of course we've all grown up now. =P

So my family is now left with only 2 young kids. I had fun playing with them earlier lol... They are still oblivious to what their older cousins used to do Lol...

. .. ... .... .....

I nearly cried again today...

As I mentioned in my earlier post, my grandma came up to me and chucked a $50 note in my hand (on top of the angbao she gave me). I refused to take it and told her that I'm big enough now... She kept looking around hoping no one heard us... And insisted that I should take it since she's working...

='(

My grandpa asked me a few simple questions and I felt like crying already. Just touched by his love...

When it comes to them, I'm soft-hearted because they played a big role in my life.

Wow... Reunion dinner... Lol...

I ate for 2 hours. :)

That was because I'm a SLOW eater. HAHAHA...

Round 2 later!!!!!!!!!!

My family members commented that I'VE SLIMMED DOWN a lot. And asked if I've been eating... HAHA. See... More reasons to EAT!!!!!!!!!! =X

..... .... ... .. .

AH, MengChing is so blessed!!! She has just received an iPod from her sis-in-law!

I've been wanting to get one for SO long... WHENEVER I travel, I long to listen to some songsss... Otherwise I'll resort to reading my notes. It's probably a good thing then.

Been wanting to get...

1) A keyboard  to play in my room...
2) A handphone (Which dad has promised)
3) An iPod..
4) my piano tuned..
5) Cello D, C and G strings
6) Cello bridge changed
7) Piano polisher/cleaner

All 7 things, I've been PROCRASTINATING for the longest time...

Reasons
1) They are EXPENSIVE
2) They are not an immediate NEED

Still... It's only a matter of time before I need to get 4) 5) 6) done. They're cranking up already...

Seriously, I don't know what I'm waiting for?!?! Some angel to get them for me?! For those stuff to drop from heaven?! Tsk... AILEEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Still, I know that God knows the desires of my heart! AMEN! HAHA... Even so, thou shall not procrastinate!

. .. ... .... .....

Ok, back to the reunion dinner...

Some of my family members were shocked that I went into NURSING. My grandma didn't like the idea and said that it's useless, Others think that it's a noble profession, probably after seeing the nurses in action during my grandpa's hospital stay...

Whatever it is, I'm proud to be a NURSE (in-making) and it doesn't matter to me what others think. If it's your CALLING, you'd better address to it. A lifetime is too short not to do what you're called to. Or to do something which you're NOT called to.

And one more thing, I HATE it when people refer to nurses as MISSIES. IT'S plain RUDE. Patients should be educated on that. But don't worry, nurses are NICE people who give equal rights to all patients (or try to...). OLD (70 and above) patients are excused, they're probably oblivious to the implication.

You can joke with me once or twice, I can even find it funny. Anything more, YOU ARE plain IRRITATING.

People have this perception  that nursing is a DIRTY JOB. It's funny, if YOU are a patient, will YOU tell a nurse that?

I'll leave you with that.

Think about it.

Oh yay it's reunion day tmr...

When I think of my maternal extended family, I'd always feel like crying... They were the ones who took care of me while growing up... Especially my grandma. It was human's love at its ultimate. Certainly wasn't easy.

I remember standing beside her watching her cook... Tagging along with her to the wet market... Crawling up on her laps...

She was the one who tricked me and plucked off my tooth... Who brought my cousins and I to the playground... Otherwise, she'd scream from the 10th floor for us to go home. Who rubbed boiled egg on my bruise...

She's always the one chucking money into my hands even though I refused to take... And she'd tell me not to tell my parents.

I thank God that she's still very fit and healthy for her age. :)

~~~

My grandpa.

He's always the silent one. The first to sleep in the family. The one who loved watching WWF on the TV... The one who loves eating duck backsides! So we'd always save that for him.

He has diabetics and had just amputated his lower leg. This brought me back to the Youtube video I saw about the process of a below-knee amputation. It saddens me to think that he had to go through that operation.

When I see him tmr, he'd be on a wheelchair. It'd certainly break my heart.

To think that I played on a wheelchair in school, wheeling around... Making turns... Trying to 'park' myself... It's just not funny anymore knowing that a loved one has to depend on it now.

As a nursing student, I'm prepared to be bombarded with questions tmr, of which I hope I can help. But frankly speaking, I'm still a green horn and there're simply too much stuff to learn about everything in such a short time.

It's always good to have a nurse in the family HAHA. To consult if you doubt the doctors. =P

Wedding shot of my grandparents!!! :) This is so vintage! My grandma looked like a classic Chinese model... HAHA...

Looking forward to seeing them and EATINGGGGGGGG!!

Ok I had a crazy day. And I'd like to scribble it out.

1) Piano
2) Nursing Tutorial
3) Lunch with Matt
4) Pharmaco Tutorial
5) Pharmaco Lecture
6) Cello

1) Lesson started at 9am. Whoever plays piano so early??? Ha... And I was fresh from sleep, still having sinus. So while playing, the mucus kept flowinggg... I couldn't focus completely and kept having to interrupt the lesson by clearing my nose!!! Like 5 times??? Tsk... She taught me the 3rd exam piece today...

2) Thought I'd be late for school so I took a cab from B.V. Turned out I had to wait for 10 minutes for the teacher... Anyway, I'm normally quite vocal during tutorial... So at first I asked a few questions which kinda impressed the tutor. Lol... Then I asked a totally lame question which cracked me up (self-entertainment) but she actually took it seriously and tried to answer...

3) Matt came to look for me in school to return me stuff and we ate at Subway as usual cos I have 20% off. He delivered some good news too.

4) Well, this tutor made me quite frustrated. When he taught, he didn't look at us and his body wasn't even facing us. *?!*  The whole lesson I was trying hard to figure out what he was saying. And that was tiring.

5) Lecture was fine. At least I could understand and be on par with the lecturer. But that means I had to focus greatly.

Pharmacology never fails to suck the blood out of me. But it's interesting to know how drugs work and exert their biological effects. What actually happens to the pill you pop in?

So school ended at 5pm. Did some stuff and left school around 6pm... Buses were all packed and I didn't dare to squeeze with the rest cos of my cello... So my friends and I actually hitched a cab ride from someone, one of my brilliant ideas... Lol... SO what happened was...

In the cab, we found out that he was actually a professor in school. "OH MY..." Who just arrived in SG 2 days ago... He insisted that we didn't have to pay him cos since he's a prof he should take care of the students... And he felt happy to pay for us...

So touched! And so blessed! But I'll never do that again.... Today was exceptional cos of my cello and I was rushing for time...

6) So by the time I reached my teacher's house, guess what? I was totally drained already. I feel bad actually for taking up his time and playing so badly. Really disappointed with myself. :(

I reached home around 11pm? Called some people to settle some stuff for tmr... Oh and I haven't taken my dinner.

"Why are you so hardworking today?"

My dad just asked me that. HAHA. I'm still studying... And reason is not because I am hardworking but rather it is because I slept for 4 hours earlier... HAHA...

I love school!

I am amused and intrigued by the new knowledge imparted everyday! :) Like during physio lecture today, we had the answers to things we often take for granted.

1) Why do we have to drink water when taking medicine?
2) Why do babies have to be burped after consuming food?
3) Why is it that a person can hold alcohol better after taking in fatty food?
4) How much saliva do you produce in a day?
5) If you think that the fecal matter you produced at night was what you ate for breakfast earlier, then you're wrong!

LOL... Does it make you wanna find out??? Lol... Please ask me if you're dying to know so I can revise too HAHA... Or any other health-related burning questions that you have, so I can find out too.

Oh Yang... Look what I've found in my archive...

            ~~~

Sunday, April 29, 2007

By now, most if not all of my jc male friends are in the army.. And I'd like say a big THANK YOU for your sacrifice and for keeping Singapore safe and sound... that we can go to bed every night peacefully.. =) Remember, don't lose passion in whatever you loved doing before entering army..
Yang, continue to do what you are good in - playing beautiful piano pieces. I shall find you to accompany my cello in future.. =)

             ~~~

See... I have faith in you! HAHA!

But I don't know when my "future" is gonna come to past... At least my passion for cello is still pretty alive currently. The diminished flame was ignited recently and I've been practising cello everyday since... It's as if I'm under some magic spell??? Ha...

And 2 days later, my cello teacher's uncle will be coming to coach the string players in our orchestra. It's kinda hmmm amusing? Daunting? To think that I'm learning under people from the same family... Haha...

Ok I'm off...

At 1:40am...

My MSN window popped up...

::::Jeff:::: says:
you're loved..
::::Jeff:::: says:
your dearest kor..

It was so out of the blue, I nearly cried. Ha...

And last night while lying on my bed, snips of memory played through my mind. It was about my journey with this person who has been very encouraging and patient with me all along. My source of motivation when I felt like giving up.

And it brought tears to my eyes. Too touched. :)

When I think about the people who are close to my heart, I feel blessed beyond measure. I don't know what they see in me that I should deserve such favours and I can never thank God enough for them.

Had piano lesson in the morning and my teacher went through 2 exam pieces already... Just gotta tidy and tighten up now...

Very thankful for my teacher cos I improved a lot under her, she makes me love music more... Maybe it's her passion in teaching... Also thankful that she always teaches me for 10-15 minutes more! That's almost one more lesson in a month... :)

Anyway, I still feel solemn. For what reason, I don't know... Nothing happened too. Maybe it's school work... Maybe it's just the transition from holiday -> school. Lost my appetite for 2 weeks already... My teacher asked if I've slimmed down HAHA. NO I think.

Since I'm feeling like that, I might as well take advantage of that and record an emo song.

So here it is...

Yiruma - River Flows In You

Yiruma is a Korean and most of his songs are kinda sentimental... Youtube him for other songs...

Enjoy...

Let me know if there're things to improve on... I know I rushed a little at the back... Was slightly nervous haha.

Gotta go for lesson now... It's from 4-5pm. 1 little hour in school today... And it's Pharmacology... Loaded my bag with sweets already...

It was a solemn day.

The physio lecturer I mentioned is really good. I felt bad for discriminating him earlier... =X

Cos every sentence that proceeds out of his mouth is mostly important stuff which carries a lot of weight. His lecture captivates me and manages to keep me wide awake.

For a serious lecturer like him, it means that every little non-serious comment that he makes, intensifies the funniness and amuses us.

Like...

"It's all in the notes, so you don't have to copy furiously." Lol...

I can't bring out the essence of that sentence here haha but it made the whole lecture hall resound with laughter. Lol...

Btw, today he taught us that Vitamin D is actually NOT a vitamin. It's a hormone. Cos it does not fit the definition of a "vitamin".

I'm beginning to like Physiology and he's the reason!

And no, first impressions are not lasting when the second impression is totally different. Haha.

..... .... ... .. .

Well, school ended at 10am today. So I hanged around at YongSiewToh library... My latest favourite spot in school... And read some cannot-be-borrowed music magazines haha so more reasons to go there...

Hope that my studies won't be affected.

Don't know if I can handle school + piano + cello... I wanna do well for all...

. .. ... .... .....

Accompanied Meng Ching to TanTockSeng Hospital to visit her goddad. People always think that hospitals are very depressing places, but if a person is depressed, anywhere can be depressing.

:(

The entire day just didn't feel right.

I tried to practise on cello but it sounded awful. So I stopped. Been practising for the past few days and WAS happy with my progress. But today was BAD...

:(

I'm just gonna stop here...

Back To School!

 

Still gotta get used to sleeping before 1am. And getting up before 7am!

My dad woke me up this morning by threatening not to drive me to school if I continued sleeping. It worked good.

On the way there, I was so alive and excited to reach school and see my friends! But I was the earliest to reach among my group of friends... Haha so the waiting period kinda dampened my mood as I was SUPPOSED to be sleeping at that time...

Ok so the first lecture was Physiology. Nobody likes it except some weirdos. To make it worse, the lecturer was kinda boring and looked boring too. He didn't even start off by introducing himself or warm us up... But went straight ahead with teaching us about all kinds of hormones.

HORMONES at 8am?!

Anyway, I stayed awake for those 2 hours. Amazing grace...!

I'm kinda freaking out now. This semester is gonna be tougher due to the introduction of a new subject "Pharmacology". I suppose we have to memorize a hell lot of stuff like the names of medicines and their constitutes..

To think I even have trouble remembering names of PEOPLE I talked to... =X

 

Nevertheless, by faith I believe that I'll be able to not merely survive this semester but to pull through it victoriously.

AMEN!

Had a GREAT day!!! Felt really high and happy today hahaha. Though I don't know why I lost my appetite...

Here are some pics!

We went jamming together!!! FUN! Great company~ :)

Sharmagne and Seow Shi

Some of us went down to celebrate Darren's birthday! (The more INTENSE you wish for something, the faster your wish can come true! Lol...)

Birthday boy!

Vincent the Manhunt guy HAHA..

Steph is so cute! :)

 

Music makes my day!!!!!!! Love to hang around with like-minded people too!

..... .... ... .. .

On a heavier note, I HATE GOSSIPS. Don't talk to me if you're gonna gossip!!! It just gets on my nerve to hear bad stuff about so-and-so.

Firstly, I don't have to know.
Secondly, it's boring to me.
Thirdly, it's unhealthy to my mind and soul.

I'd rather be known as the self-ostracized than to be involved. Some people gossip to feel secure about themselves...

Pst Kong: When  you bring someone down, you make yourself APPEAR higher.

Some people join in to gossip to feel a sense of belonging in a group. I'd rather not belong to that group.

Yes, when 2 agree on something, there is power. Power to build and likewise, power to destroy.

I just hate gossips. Period.

. .. ... .... .....

School is starting SOON!!!!!!!! :)

Oh it's such a happy day!!!!!!!!!

1) Woke up at 9.20am for my piano lesson which was at 10am. Hehe. Started on my 2nd exam piece and it's quite a fun piece to play too. Hehe.

2) Bid for my module again and I got it for just 1 point! Yay... By the way, there is NO such word as "bidded". Past tense of "bid" is "bid"...

3) Finally went for cello lesson at night! After almost a year of not having... Haha. Nice!!

Well on the way home... I realized something. My music lessons are both at the ENDS of Singapore. Piano is 6 bus-stops away from Boon Lay interchange and Cello 2 stops from Pasir Ris interchange...

For the love of music, I'm willing to go the DISTANCE... Love knows no ending! Waha...

..... .... ... .. .

Side track, talking about uniforms...

My friend just showed me the new army uniform...

http://www.mindef.gov.sg/imindef/
publications/cyberpioneer/news/2008/
September/03sep08_news/03sep08_photos.html

It's unpleasant looking! (Understatement)

And actually nurses aren't supposed to be wearing our uniforms out of the hospital after work. Though it's a common habit here.

It's not because of the fear of having GHOSTS following us home HAHA... But it's for an objective reason which is to prevent the spread of diseases to the public.

Everything in the hospital has to be clean and hygenic. Nurses have to wash our hands after touching every patient (of course not within their sight) if possible. I washed mine SO many times @ St. Luke's. And there are actually SEVEN steps in a medical handwash.

We are taking the old saying "Prevention is better than cure" LITERALLY!

:)

Here I am again.

I've just checked my bidding result and I DIDN'T GET THE MODULE!

For us, we have only 500 points to play around with. And the winning bid for the music module that I wanted was 903, and contemporary social issue was 620.

SO...

I'm gonna bid again later...

For

GENES AND SOCIETY.

"The aim of the module is to introduce students to the modern concepts in biology and to enable them to evaluate independently the potential benefits and risks of the biotechnological revolution and its implications for society."

It's still kinda linked to Nursing. My modules for this semester are

1) Physiology
2) Pharmacology
3) Therapeutic Communication (?!)
4) Contemporary Nursing

Those are allocated modules which I don't have to bid for. Yay don't have to see cadavers for this semester. IF I get "genes and society"... My whole semester is so Science and Biology!!!!!!!!!!!!

ARGH................................

I like Science and Bio stuff, but it can get congestive sometimes! I need to express my creativity somehow... Like to at least have an Art module which I can read and write more interesting stuff and where there're no right or wrong answers!

I'm good in writing crap sometimes (That's creativity ok...)  so those without specific answers are good for me!!!

Science is too definite!!!!!!!!

:(

And most of my days start at 8AM!!!

So JC?!?! And I thought I'm done with waking up early for school forever. Lol.

Who on earth study at 8am?!?! LOL...

Ok there're plenty but I totally can't imagine now after 3 weeks of waking up LATE... :)

But all my Physiology lectures start at 8am... And that subject is... ='(

 

Well after all the ranting, I'M STILL EXCITED FOR SCHOOL!!!! =) So looking forward!!!! YESSS....

I must do well this semester. Aim to increase my GPA by 1 (under-performed for last semester)... For the sake of the patients I'll be serving in future HAHA...

 

 

Ultimately, I just wanna glorify God in all that I do.

Woo, there's Tattoo Show @ the Singapore Expo from 9th-11th Jan. Which is the next 3 days.  Check out @ www.tattoo.com.sg if you're interested!

I have been thinking of getting one. Perhaps in a more discreet place due to the taboo of having a tattoo and it's not allowed in Nursing as we have to uphold a professional image...... :)

I absolutely think that having a tattoo is something amoral. Will it make my character worse? No! :) But we can't deny there is still a stigma attached to it even in this modernistic time.

Why.................. Oh why...................

 

..... .... ... .. .

 

Anyway, in the past 5 days, I've been to City Hall 4 times, Esplanade 3 times, met Steph 2 times and Marilyn 1 time.

Haha. Madness. And Steph asked me out again today to the Esplanade AGAIN. Lol... But I wanna stay home toady and do my stuff...

Think I put on some weight during the holiday HAHA.

With a red lipstick, I can become a GEISHA instantly.

With Marilyn just back from Perth.  I wanna go for a backpack trip to Aussie next holiday!!! Perhaps for 2-3 weeks? Anyone?!

I can't believe I actually woke up at 9.45am. It's WAY before my normal waking up time haha. All because of a few smses...

1) Steph - Meeting her AGAIN for lunch 2) Cello teacher - May have lessons with him again... I MUST improve more this year!

So here I am again. :)

I think I've blogged excessively this holiday HAHA. Once semester starts I won't be coming often I guess. And I hope. :)

Before I leave to meet her, here's a video recording that I did earlier...

Yiruma - I

As much as I wanted it to be mistake-free, there is ONE particular note that I played wrongly and that stuck out like a SCARECROW. Argh... And I don't know why my neighbour had to SCREAM at her child as I was recording.

Haha. Anyway, enjoy. And give your feedback if there're things to improve on.

Thanks! :)

 

1 more week to SCHOOL!

I'm excited for it haha. I love school and I don't mind the LONG hours of breaks or staying back late HAHA. Gonna maximize my stay in NUS!!!!!

Although I love my holidays too. =P I'm satisfied with the past 2 weeks of holidays hehe...

Oh and I'm so happy that the course I want is available! Bidding starts on the 7th and I'm so gonna bid for that... It fits nicely into my timetable too.

The module is........

MUSIC IN THE GLOBAL CONTEXT

So at the end of the module, I will learn to appreciate different styles of music more. HAHA. It's under Yong Siew Toh Conservatory of Music! So cool right! =)!

HOPE I CAN GET THAT.................. Though there's totally no link from the course I'm taking, :) it's linked to my life!

..... .... ... .. .

(Chunks of disorganized writings...)

This afternoon Steph told me a news which made my heart skipped a beat and my adrenaline rushed a bit.

If I have wings I swear I could fly!!!! (Eww... Cliche.)

Even as I'm typing, I'm SMILING to myself just thinking of that. (And it's 3+am already)

=)

I am feeling jumpy :D

I love my life!!!!!!!!!!! And I love my dreams SO much I wanna bring them into reality.

Ok the news has something to do with PIANO of course!!! :) My life, my love! But I won't say much yet.

I'm so proud of her. I should be calling her "shi mu" soon!

And btw, I'm happy about the 'origin' of my name! My dad told me he named me after a PIANIST in CHURCH... I didn't know that till I was 16/17?

Maybe he had a crush on her or something? HAHA...

See, I really shouldn't be blogging now... I shall spend tmr practising the piano and cello. YES.

Falling in love with them all over again!!! :)

WOo... Met Meng Ching just now at Holland Village! And I ate the most expensive Nasi Lemak ever... It cost $5.90! Lol.

And while eating, a COCKROACH flew and landed on my back and crawled from RIGHT TO LEFT... I wore a tube dress and so I could FEEL it!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ah. And on Boxing Day while Cai and I were talking on a bench, a LIZARD crawled on my leg!!!!!!!

?!?!

WHY ME!!!!!!!!

I know I said "come what may" in my previous post... BUT NOT SUCH THINGS?! HAHA.

Anyway, after our dinner I brought her to a nice place to chill. It's called "Essential Brew". A cosy cosy place to hang out and talk but NOT recommended for couples to go. Just not the right kind of feel haha.

With her Camomile tea

With my Chocolate ice cream :)

      v(^;^)

Funny background haha.

US! :)

We just kept talkinggggg.... Till there was nothing much to say anymore Haha. Or rather we couldn't think of anything more. :)

She's a great girl! Big-hearted, funny, hardworking, sincere, genuine, direct, strong, godly, understanding, helpful and cute! =)

Happy 2009 to all.
Keep believing.
Keep YOUR dream alive!

Went for a dinner with my mum at Sushi Tei @ Paragon. NICE place! NICE food! =) Cos I was craving for Jap food and was hungry too Haha. Recently I like anything Jap hehe.

Well so on the way home in the train... 2 funny incidents happened within 15 minutes.

1) I was standing and reading a book and a woman came up to me and asked "ARE YOU PREGNANT?" HAHA. OMG. It's either she was blind or cos of the 'airy' dress I wore HAHA!

Then I think she saw me looking at her nail polish on her fingers... Cos it was Purple with glitters and it was just weird on her considering her age. And she said "My nail polish very nice right? Very bright,.." -_- I could only muster up a small "Ya." HAHA, White lie, polka dotted lie whatever! =P

A few minutes later...

2) A woman standing about 4 steps away FAINTED. Surrounding her were all men! And the men's "Ah..." diverted the commuters' attention to that direction. Including mine of course haha. Nurse leh... HAHA!

But this nurse didn't know what to do! =X And anyway she got up on her own after a while and sat on the couple seat. The "poor thing" part wasn't the fainting but the aftermath of it.

The men surrounding her formed a semi-circle and were all staring down at her. Gosh... I know they were concerned but it was kinda intimidated wasn't it?! HAHA. Anyway so since I didn't know what to do and she looked alive, the least I could do was to sit beside her and make sure she was ok and to have at least a female near her...

Now people were looking at ME... Like to see what was I gonna do with her or something? To their despair, the drama ended there. HAHA. I did nothing until we alighted and I offered to carry her stuff... Lol... Well at least something..........

All I can say is... THEY COULD HELP BY NOT STARING. =P

What an interesting night huh...

..... .... ... .. .

And when I reached home, I had to stress over which module to bid for later!!! It's kinda like window-shopping for a module. I short-listed a few but they all clash with my timetable! Argh...

I wanted Jap language or music module but CAN'T... So I decided to take...

Contemporary Social Issues in Singapore

Hopefully I can get that. If not for nursing, I'd have gone to Arts and take Sociology/Psychology/Social Work. But I still can take modules from there. I love NUS! =)

. .. ... .... .....

I'm quite nervous about the bidding actually, never done that before! Haha. And very excited to meet MC later at Holland V! =)

I love holidays!

Anyway, to all primary and secondary school students in W472, no more LATE nights on msn/phone and telling me you're BORED!!!

STUDY HARD!!! (Muahaha...)
